    Hi @emejing01! Thanks for reaching out and sharing your experience. If you’re still unable to get past the startup screen or are encountering a black screen. We recommend submitting a ticket to Support with details about your device, OS version, and when the issue started so the team can investigate further. To do so, go to support.pokemon.com.

    I also started having this problem yesterday - I would open the game, sign in, then it would crash my phone while on the loading screen. I would have to turn the screen off then power off the phone to fix the crash, which would take a couple minutes each time given the screen wouldn't turn off properly with the game running. The screen was completely unusable if the game was open. I restarted my phone and the app and checked for updates, and it was definitely a problem with the game rather than my device. I don't know what device you're using but I was using an android phone so it could be a problem with the game on that platform.

    I'm having this issue as well and support didn't do much to help.

    The game will let me press start but once I do, the game itself crashes and crashes my UI as well. I reinstalled the game to see if this was still happening, and thought I was fine once the files finished installing... Only for it to crash after playing one Quick Battle.

    This is so unacceptable.
